Senior Maddie Moore named First Team All-Heartland Conference

BLUFFTON, Ohio - Senior Maddie Moore (Linn Grove, Ind./South Adams) capped her outstanding career at Bluffton by being
named first team All-Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference for the 2012 women's
soccer season. Junior Aimee Whitmer (Grand Rapids/Otsego) and freshman Laura Fish (Findlay/Liberty-Benton) were both selected second team All-HCAC. Moore is a four-time
All-HCAC honoree, while Whitmer was honored by the Heartland coaches for the third
consecutive season.

Maddie Moore had her most productive season as a senior, tying Laura Fish for team-high
scoring honors with seven goals and 15 points. She fired 56 shots and buried one game-winner
during her final campaign. Moore climbed the all-time scoring list, moving up to number 4
with 43 total points. Her 16 career goals is the fifth-highest total in Bluffton women's
soccer history. In addition, Moore ended her career tied for third all-time with 11
assists.

Aimee Whitmer collected her third consecutive All-HCAC honor when she was again named
second team All-Heartland Conference. While spending the bulk of her minutes in the
backfield her first two seasons at Bluffton, Whitmer emerged as a scoring threat from
midfield during her junior campaign. She finished with 37 shots, just four fewer than
her first two years combined. Whitmer currently stands ninth all-time with five assists
and 15th with 19 career points.

Laura Fish had a monster freshman campaign for the Beavers in 2012. She equaled Moore
for top scoring honors with seven goals and one assist (15 total points). Fish's seven
goals tied her for 11th all-time on the single-season scoring list. She knocked in the
game-winner in Bluffton's win at conference-rival Anderson University and converted the
Beavers' only penalty kick of the year at Shawnee State.

In conjunction with the All-HCAC selections, the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference
also announced the All-HCAC Sportsmanship Team for the fall of 2012. Senior Kirsten Egts (Rawson/Cory-Rawson) was selected to the All-Sportsmanship Team from Bluffton. This
award has been developed as part of a conference-wide sportsmanship initiative. Members
of the All-HCAC Sportsmanship team are selected by the coaches and their teammates
as individuals who demonstrate the ideals of positive sportsmanship both on and off
the field/court of competition.
